Environmental

Our research and services contribute to creating environmentally sustainable infrastructure

We work to understand the effects infrastructure has on the natural environment and on people and provide advice to minimise adverse impacts.

Our work in this area includes research to better quantify environmental impacts, relating to noise, ground vibrations, and emissions into the air. We also assess the likely impacts resulting from wind on buildings and other structures.

For infrastructure developments we are called on to identify and assess the environmental effects across the project and how they can be mitigated where necessary. Our clients include transport planners and operators, building developers and managers, as well as central and local government agencies.
